Requirements for Local Client Devices

You can access the Integrated Administrator locally using the serial connector on the rear panel
of the enclosure using a local client device, such as a laptop computer. The local client device
must run a terminal emulator, such as HyperTerminal for Windows systems or Kermit for Linux
systems.
The terminal emulator must operate at the following settings:
■
Bits per second: 9600
■
Bits: 8
■
Parity: None
■
Stop bits: 1
■
Flow control: none
■
Emulation: VT100

Default Values for the Integrated Administrator

The Integrated Administrator is configured with a default user name, password, and DNS name.
A settings tag with the preconfigured values is attached to the interconnect tray containing the
Integrated Administrator module.

For security reasons, HP recommends changing the Administrator password when accessing
Integrated Administrator for the first time.

Determining the IP Address using the Local Console

a. Connect a local client device (such as a laptop computer) with VT100 terminal
emulation software to the Integrated Administrator (serial) console connector using a
null modem serial cable.
b. Open a terminal emulation session with the following settings: 9600 bps, 8 data bits, no
parity, and 1 stop bit.
c. Log into the Integrated Administrator using the password on the settings tag attached to
the interconnect tray.
2. Establish the Integrated Administrator IP address.
